My luck was good today I got a R/C car at a local garage sale for $10 which
has a 49 megHzs control frequency so I need not be concerned with CB
stations. i suspect rerceivers are interchangeable if needs be tho just
using an aproach transmitter and measuring activation distances.
I am beginning to see this as a viable comparison test that could be used at
a club meet
Cheers and beers

Well I opened the parcel to check things out
The frequency is 27.5 MHZ and is to be flown in an area
with 200 feet from obstructions such as trees. It will land when beyond
range of transmitter

The correct air craft control freqs are in the 72 Mhz band, 75 is used

only
for ground vehicles ie. cars, boats etc.

As a ham you may use any ham freq IAW amateur regs.

In the US, 27 MHz is a hazardous frequency to be on...don't know

about
elsewhere. Good units are in the 75 MHz range.
